Personal Injury Lawyer Expresses Relief When Construction Worker Escapes Uninjured

July 20, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com’s Thomas Moverman recently expressed relief after news was released that a Concord construction worker escaped an accident uninjured. Moverman said that many workers are not so fortunate and that it is important to keep in mind the dangers that these workers face every day.

Wicked Local Concord reported on the incident in early July stating that a tire from the lift the man operated drove into a high-voltage, underground electricity vault. The man was able to jump to safety from a platform on the lift that was suspended 10 feet off the ground.

Though the most common forms of injury in the construction business include slips, trips and falls, accidents including electrocution and being stuck between objects or struck by them, accounted for over half of construction worker deaths in 2014, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The OSHA reported that more than 20 percent of all work-related fatalities in 2013 were employed in the construction industry and that one in five of the 4,821 reported fatalities in 2014 were in the construction industry.

Lipsig, Shapey, Manus & Moverman have long been representing victims of construction accidents. The firm is currently looking to assist those individuals who have been injured in a construction accident and qualifying individuals may be entitled to financial compensation. They have successfully obtained millions in settlements for victims and strongly believe in fighting for the compensation victims need and deserve. In one case, Attorney Thomas Moverman won a victim $2.6 million for a worker who injured his knee and back in a fall from defective scaffolding.

“My clients’ lives and families are the most important aspect of what I do. I hope the lawsuits that I bring and the results I obtain will allow them to try to restore themselves both physically and personally,” said Moverman of the firm’s efforts.
